WARNING

CAUTION

as instructed.

 is sign shows there is a risk of injury or material damage if this unit is not properly

used as instructed.

*Material damage here means a damage to the room, furniture or animals or pets.

WARNING

 Do not open (or modify in any way) the unit or its AC

adaptor.

 Do not attempt to repair the unit, or replace parts in

it. Refer all servicing to your retailer, the nearest Hammond Dealer, or an authorized Hammond distributor, as listed on the “Service” page.

 Never use or store the unit in places that are:

 Subject to temperature extremes (e.g., direct sun-

light in an enclosed vehicle, near a heating duct, on top of heat generating equipment)

 Damp (e.g., baths, washrooms, on wet  oors)  Humid  Exposed to rain  Dusty  Subject to high levels of vibration.

 Be sure to use only the AC adaptor supplied with the

unit. And, make sure the line voltage at the installation matches the input voltage speci ed on the AC adaptor’s case. Other AC adaptors may use a di erent polarity, or be designed for a di erent voltage, their use could result in damage, malfunction, or electric shock.

 Do not excessively twist or bend the power cord, or

place heavy objects on it. Doing so can damage the cord, producing severed elements and short circuits. Damaged cords are  re and shock hazards!

  is unit, either alone or in combination with an am-

pli er and headphones or speakers, may be capable of producing sound levels that could cause permanent hearing loss. Do not operate for a extended periods of time at a high volume level, or at a level that is uncomfortable. If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, you should immediately stop using the unit, and consult a physician.

 Do not allow any objects (e.g.,  ammable material,

coins, pins); or liquids of any kind (water, so drinks, etc.) to penetrate the unit.

 Immediately turn the power o , remove the AC adap-

tor from the outlet, and request servicing by your retailer, the nearest Hammond Dealer, or an authorized Hammond distributor, as listed on the “Service” page when:   e AC adaptor, the power-supply cord, or the

plug has been damaged; or

 If smoke or unusual odor occurs  Objects have fallen into, or liquid has been spilled

onto the unit; or

  e unit has been exposed to rain (or otherwise

has become wet); or

  e unit does not appear to operate normally or

exhibits a marked change in performance.

 In households with small children, an adult should

provide supervision until the child is capable of following all the rules essential for the safe operation of the unit.

 Protect the unit from strong impact. (Do not drop it!)

 Do not force the unit’s power-supply cord to share an

outlet with an unreasonable number of other devices. Be especially careful when using extension cords - the total power used by all devices you have connected to the extension cord’s outlet must never exceed the power rating (watts/amperes) for the extension cord. Excessive loads can cause the insulation on the cord to heat up and eventually melt through.

 Before using the unit in a foreign country, consult

with your retailer, the nearest Hammond Dealer, or an authorized Hammond distributor, as listed on the “Service” page.

 Do not put anything that contains water (e.g.,  ower

vases) on this unit. Also, avoid the use of insecticides, perfumes, alcohol, nail polish, spray cans, etc., near the unit. Swi ly wipe away any liquid that spills on the unit using a dry, so cloth.

CAUTION

  e unit and the AC adaptor should be located so

their location or position does not interfere with their proper ventilation.

 Always handle the AC adaptor by the plug when plug-

ging into, or unplugging from an outlet or this unit.

 At regular intervals, you should unplug the AC adap-

tor and clean it by using a dry cloth to wipe all dust and other accumulations away from its prongs. Also, disconnect the power plug from the power outlet whenever the unit is to remain unused for an extended period of time. Any accumulation of dust between the power plug and the power outlet can result in poor insulation and lead to  re.

 Try to prevent cords and cables from becoming en-

tangled. Also, all cords and cables should be placed so they are out of the reach of children.

 Never climb on top of, nor place heavy objects on the

unit

 Never handle the AC adaptor or its plugs with wet

hands when plugging into, or unplugging from, an outlet of this unit.

 Before moving the unit, disconnect the AC adaptor

and all cords coming from external devices.

 Before cleaning the unit, turn o the power and un-

plug the AC adaptor from the outlet.

 Whenever you suspect the possibility of lightning in

your area, disconnect the AC adaptor from the outlet.

In the unlikely event that you need to dispose of this unit, be sure to contact your dealer or your nearest town or municipal oﬃ ce for its proper disposal.

Introduction

IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ

Power Supply

 Do not use this unit on the same power circuit with any

device that will generate line noise (such as an electric motor or variable lighting system).

  e AC adaptor will begin to generate heat after long hours

of consecutive use.  is is normal, and is not a cause for concern.

 Before connecting this unit to other devices, turn oﬀ the

power to all units.  is will help prevent malfunctions and/ or damage to speakers or other devices.

Placement

 Using the unit near power ampliﬁ ers (or other equipment

containing large power transformers) may induce hum. To alleviate the problem, change the orientation of this unit; or move it farther away from the source of interference.

  is device may interfere with radio and television recep-

tion. Do not use this device in the vicinity of such receivers.

 Noise may be produced if wireless communications devices,

such as cell phones, are operated in the vicinity of this unit. Such noise could occur when receiving or initiating a call, or while conversing. Should you experience such problems, you should relocate such wireless devices so they are at a greater distance from this unit, or switch them oﬀ .

 Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight, place it near de-

vices that radiate heat, leave it inside an enclosed vehicle, or otherwise subject it to temperature extremes. Also, do not allow lighting devices that normally are used while their light source is very close to the unit (such as a piano light), or powerful spotlights to shine upon the same area of the unit for extended periods of time. Excessive heat can deform or discolor the unit.

 When moved from one location to another where the tem-

perature and/or humidity is very diﬀ erent, water droplets (condensation) may form inside the unit. Damage or malfunction may result if you attempt to use the unit in this condition.  erefore, before using the unit, you must allow it to stand for several hours, until the condensation has completely evaporated.

 Do not allow rubber, vinyl, or similar materials to remain

on the unit for long periods of time. Such objects can discolor or otherwise harmfully aﬀ ect the ﬁ nish.

 Do not paste stickers, decals, or the like to this instrument.

Peeling such matter oﬀ the instrument may damage the exterior ﬁ nish.

kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration and/or deformation.

Additional Precautions

 Please be aware that the contents of memory can be irre-

trievably lost as a result of a malfunction, or the improper operation of the unit. To protect yourself against the risk of losing important data, we recommend that you periodically save a backup copy of important data you have stored in the unit’s memory in another MIDI device (e.g., a sequencer).

 Unfortunately, it may be impossible to restore the contents

of data that was stored in another MIDI device (e.g., a sequencer) once it has been lost. Hammond assumes no liability concerning such loss of data.

 Use a reasonable amount of care when using the unit’s but-

tons, sliders, or other controls; and when using its jacks and connectors. Rough handling can lead to malfunctions.

 When connecting / disconnecting all cables, grasp the

connector itself - never pull on the cable.  is will avoid causing short circuits, or damage to the cable’s internal elements.

 To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to keep the unit's

volume at reasonable levels. You may prefer to use headphones, so you do not need to be concerned about those around you (especially when it is late at night).

 When you need to transport the unit, package it in the box

(including padding) that it came in, if possible. Otherwise, you will need to use equivalent packaging materials.

Maintenance

 To clean the unit, use a dry, soft cloth; or one that is slightly

dampened.

 To remove stubborn dirt oﬀ plastic parts, use a cloth im-

pregnated with a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Afterwards, be sure to wipe the unit thoroughly with a soft, dry cloth. Try to wipe the entire surface using an equal amount of strength, moving the cloth along with the grain of the wood. Rubbing too hard in the same area can damage the ﬁ nish.

 Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any

MIDI Cable (Optional)

BASIC CONNECTION OF THE LESLIE SPEAKER

Connect the Leslie Speaker #2101, or #2101mk2 and the Leslie 8-PIN jack on this keyboard with the exclusive 8-pin Leslie cable (optional LC-8-7M, not included).

NOTE: The Leslie terminal on this unit is of 8-pin speci cations. Use the Leslie adaptor XLD-811

(optional) to connect a 11-pin spec. Leslie speaker e.g. #122XB.

1. Make the setting of Tone-Wheel organ.

2. Switch “ON” the [BYPASS] button, set the [STATIONARY VOLUME] of the #2101/mk2 at desired volume.

3. Repeat “ON/OFF” the [BYPASS] button with playing the keyboard, set the [ROTARY VOLUME] of the #2101/mk2 at same volume which you can hear.

MIDI CONTROL OF THE LESLIE SPEAKER

To control the parameters of the Leslie Speaker #2101, #2101mk2 (ﬁ ne adjustment of the rotor speed or the rise time, etc.):

1. Connect the MIDI OUT of this unit with the MIDI IN of the Leslie speaker with a MIDI cable.

2. Set the keyboard channel - UPPER and the Leslie MIDI channel to the same channel. (P. 115)

When this unit detects that the Leslie speaker is connected, the Leslie parameters sent through MIDI from this unit are switched from the SK original to those for the Leslie speaker.

LESLIE SPEAKERS TO BE CONNECTED

This keyboard is designed to connect with 3 channel Leslie speakers such as #2101. However, it is also possible to connect 1 channel type Leslie speakers such as #3300 sending the stationary channels to the LINE OUT jacks independently. (P. 86)

LESLIE CHANNEL

3 channel type Leslie speakers are equipped with a stereo speaker system, independent of the rotor, to provide stereo sound for the Extra Voices and direct organ sounds.

A traditional 1-channel Leslie, such as a #122 or #147 has no stationary speaker system, thus requiring a separate ampli er/speaker for the Extra Voices or direct organ sounds.

WHAT IS A “ PART”?

Each “PART” is equivalent to a player in a band or an orchestra.  e 3 Parts here are expressed in Organ terms: UPPER. LOWER, and PEDAL.  ese parts can be individually played with diﬀ erent sounds.

 e SK1 has a single keyboard, the SK2 has 2 keyboards. Plural parts are available simultaneously, by splitting the keyboards or expanding them using a MIDI keyboard.

KEYBOARD SPLIT

 e SK1 has only 1 manual, but it can be split and treated as if it were a 2 manual instrument.

[SPLIT] button

To use the Split function, press the [SPLIT] button and the light will go ON.  e default setting split is at the middle B/C.

NOTE: You can change the split point (dividing note) and octave. (P. 112)

NOTE: The Split function is disabled when a second MIDI Keyboard is

added. (P. 114)

Right of the split point is referred to as: UPPER and the left side LOWER. Percussion does not function on the LOWER part.

 ere is no SPLIT function available on the SK2.

MANUAL BASS

Manual Bass

You can play the Pedal voices using the lowest notes of the keyboard (the LOWER keyboard if on the SK2).

[M. BASS] button

To use the Manual Bass function, press the [M. BASS] button and the light will go ON.  e Pedal/Bass sound is heard in conjunction with the lowest note being played, on the manual keyboard till that time.

In order to interface with the melody performance, the default Manual Bass upper limit point is set to sound up to, and including middle “B”.

NOTE: The Manual Bass can be set to play in Lowest, Polyphonic, and

Chord (P. 112 #1). You can change the playing range of the Manual Bass (the upper limit) (P. 112 #2).

NOTE: When the SK1 is expanded to 2 manual, the Manual Bass function

works on the LOWER keyboard. (P. 114)

 e part obtained when the Manual Bass is selected is called PEDAL part and its sound is controlled by the Drawbars ([PEDAL] when selected in Drawbar Select).  is is originated from the style of playing bass on the pedal keyboard of a 3 keyboard type organ.

You can use both the manual bass and the split at the same time.  is makes it possible to play the bass + chord + melody only by yourself.

NOTE: You can triggering the Manual Bass by foot switch (P. 78).

LOWER TO PEDAL

Lower to Pedal

When a pedal keyboard is connected to the SK2, you can play the LOWER part sound (or “registration”) with the pedalboard using the “LOWER TO PEDAL”.

[LOWER to PEDAL] BUTTON

To use the ‘Lower to Pedal’ coupler, press the [LOWER to PEDAL] button and the light will go ON.

 e default upper limit for Lower to Pedal is below Middle “B”.

NOTE: You can change the playing range (the upper limit) of the ‘Lower

PEDAL SUSTAIN

A popular eﬀ ect for organ bass is “PEDAL SUSTAIN”, which adds a smooth decay reminiscent of a string bass.

[PEDAL SUSTAIN]

To engage the pedal sustain, press the [P. SUS] button and the light will go ON. When you release your foot from the pedalboard (or release the key on the Lower keyboard - when using manual bass), the PEDAL part decays smoothly.

NOTE: You can adjust the sustain time of the Pedal Sustain. (P. 75 #16)

To fully utilizing this unit, read the following detailed explanations about the various functions for creating music.

ORGAN SECTION

TONE-WHEELS

 e sound source or “engine” of the classic Hammond Organ are the electro-magnetic Tone-Wheel Generators. On this keyboard, the Tone Wheel engine is replicated digitally.

While the power is on, each of the 96 virtual Tone-Wheels keeps oscillating as they did in the vintage Hammond Organs.

KEYS

 e tone signals created with the 96 virtual Tone-Wheels are “switched” at the keys. To each key the signals corresponding to the pitch and harmonics (for example, 9 sets on

the manual keyboard) are distributed, and when you touch or release a key, the switch connects or cuts the tone signals.

DRAWBARS

Each Drawbar represents a fundamental harmonic. Each bar adjusts the value of each harmonic.  ere are 9 drawbars corresponding to 9 diﬀ erent harmonics.

TOUCH-RESPONSE PERCUSSION

 e Percussion creates a decaying sound on the UPPER manual.

VIBRATO & CHORUS

 e Vibrato & Chorus gives depth and richness to the organ sound by slightly varying the pitch (Vibrato), or doubling the voice by mixing the original sound, with a duplicate, slightly detuned one (Chorus).

TONE-WHEEL SETS

The Tone-Wheel Sets are divided into the Manuals and the Pedal Part. This is to give the Pedal Part the Decay (= the sound gradually fading out while pressing the key) or Sustain E ect. (= the sound gradually fading out after the key is released).

HARMONICS

Harmonic is a pitch of a di erent ratio to a certain pitch; for example, the one octave higher C to the middle C. The more Harmonics, the brighter and richer sound is obtained.

OVERDRIVE

 e Overdrive creates distortion as if an ampliﬁ er was being driven beyond its limits.

MULTI-EFFECTS

 e Multi-Eﬀ ects create various eﬀ ects such as tremolo and Wah.

EQUALIZER, LESLIE, REVERB

 e built-in Eﬀ ects are as follows: an Equalizer for sculpting the tonal response, a Leslie Eﬀ ect for rotary speaker eﬀ ects, and Reverb.

( e built-in Leslie Eﬀ ect is disengaged when a physical Leslie is connected to the 8-pin terminal.)

EXTRA VOICE SECTION

SOUND ENGINE

 e Extra Voice section is the sound engine for playing piano and other musical instruments. It is independent of the Organ Section.

EFFECTS

You can add Overdrive, Multi-Eﬀ ects, Equalizer and Reverb to the Extra Voice Section.

MASTER EQUALIZER

 e combined signal of Organ and Extra Voice is routed through the Master Equalizer. Allowing you to tailor your sound for the provided venue, amp, sound system or recording.  e settings are not saved in patch memory.

Setting Up

ORGAN SECTION

ORGAN TYPE

 ere are various “Organ” types: the Hammond Tone-Wheel organs used in everywhere rock, jazz, and Gospel, the transistor organ frequently heard in pop music of ‘60’s. Classical pipe organ used in classical music or church services. All organs have characteristic sounds.

 e keyboard will sound like the types of organ you choose.

TONE-WHEELS (BType1, BType2, Mellow)

 ese are various types of Hammond Organs’ characteristic tone wheels.  e Hammond Organ’s original purpose was to duplicate the pipe organ, however, they became famous for producing a unique sound of their own.

 e BType1 and BType2 have the B-3/C-3’s traditional Tone-Wheel sounds.  e BType2 has more wow-ﬂ utter and leakage noise.

 e Mellow is not a Tone-Wheel, if strictly speaking. It replicates the ﬁ rst-generation non-mechanical Transistor Hammond Tone Generators like the GT-7 and Concord.

TRANSISTOR ( Vx, Farf)

After the transistor became generally used, the light weight organs were introduced (such as Ace Tone TOP-6 etc.) using the transistor circuit instead of the tone wheels or tubes.  e circuit system is diﬀ erent from maker to maker or model by model. We have replicated 2 representative types here.

 e Vx is a type to combine the triangle wave and square wave with several footages.  e Farf is one to combine the sound wave forms coming through plural ﬁ lters with the tablet switch.

PIPE

 e pipe organ produces sounds by oscillating the air sent through the pipe.  e name of Stops tells you which wind instruments that you are duplication.

You can create other sounds by combining diﬀ erent organ Stops, in the same way Drawbars are used on this keyboard.

HARMONIC DRAWBARS™

 e 9 Drawbars on this keyboard are used to create the basic “Hammond” sounds. Each Drawbar is marked with the register numbers 1 - 8 along the ﬂ at part of the Drawbar. If you push back a Drawbar until you cannot see any number at all, the sound of the Drawbar is not heard. If you pull it out to the fullest position the sound level is maximum.

When recalling a patch, the drawbars’ “positions” will change internally, but not physically. However, if you move a drawbar, the setting will “snap” to that drawbars current position.

51/3'

22/3'

13/5'11/3'

Middle “C”

 e pitch of each Drawbar is as shown above, when the middle C is depressed.  e footage marked (´) on the handle end of each Drawbar is derived from the corresponding length of pipes of a pipe organ.

 e numbers 1 - 8 on the “bar” portion of each Drawbar indicate the volume of the sound to be produced as well as the guide to remember Drawbar settings.

Pull the fundamental (8´), the third harmonic (2⅔ ´) plus the ﬁ fth harmonic (1⁄´) Drawbars out completely and play the keyboard. Notice how the sound resembles a clarinet.

If you push the 8´ Drawbar half-way, you’ll notice the sound becomes more highpitched and a bit “harder”. Now pull the 8´ Drawbar back out fully and push the 2⅔ ´ and 1⁄´ in halfway. Notice how the sound becomes mellower.

Experiment with the Drawbars to obtain your own personal favorite sounds.

In the case of the Tone-Wheel Organ, refer the correspondence between each bar and the footage to the “TW” row in front of the Drawbars.

 e Pedalboard plays the bass line and uses the two Drawbars

-16´ and 8´.  e ﬁ rst Pedal Drawbar produces a tone at 16´ pitch for a deep foundation bass, while the second Pedal Drawbar produces a tone at 8´ pitch, or one octave higher.

MODERN DRAWBAR REGISTRATIONS

 e Drawbar registrations introduced on the previous page are typically for classical music.

 ey were created at the dawn of the Hammond Organ, when it was intended to sound like a pipe or church organ. Later on, as the Hammond Organ spread throughout Jazz, Pop, Rock and (especially) Gospel music, Some timeless registrations become common.

APPLICATION OF PERCUSSION

When Percussion is used, the sound of the 1´ Drawbar is cancelled. As it was on the Vintage B-3. A trick is to keep the 1’ drawbar fully out, and then turn the percussion on and o as you play for a instant change in sound. Try it!

PERCUSSION

Organ tones are normally heard as long as the playing key is held down.  e word “Percussion” refers to a tone that is not steady and fades away, such as a piano or chimes.  is keyboard has Percussion tones which enhance the sounds produced by the Drawbars.

“Touch-Response Percussion” is very useful for highlighting single notes, full chords, even entire songs.

[SECOND] button

 e 2nd harmonic speaks at the same pitch as the 4´ Drawbar. Combining this 2nd harmonic with the Drawbars will produce a bright and clear attack.

To engage, press the [SECOND] button and the light will go ON.

[THIRD] button

 e 3rd harmonic tone speaks at the same pitch as the 2⅔ ´ Drawbar. Combining this 3rd harmonic with the Drawbars will produce the ringing attack that has become a Hallmark Hammond sound.

To engage, press the [THIRD] button and light will go ON.

[FAST] button

When this button is OFF (LED not lit) the percussion tone will decay (decrease in volume) slowly like a chime. When [FAST] is “ON” (LED is lit) the percussion tone will decay rapidly like a xylophone.

[SOFT] button

 is control regulates the volume of the percussion tone. When it is OFF (LED not lit) the percussion eﬀ ect will be very prominent, compared to the tones produced by the UPPER Drawbars.

NOTE: Percussion is available on 3 Organ types; BType1, BType2 and Mellow.

NOTE: You can  ne-tune the parameters of the Percussion (P. 82).

DECAY

WHAT IS THE LESLIE EFFECT?

The Leslie Speaker was invented by Donald Leslie in 1941 to make the Hammond Organ sound like a Theatre Pipe Organ. Using motor-driven rotating horns and ba es, Leslie’s invention gave the organ a rich and moving tone, which quickly became it’s own unforgettable sound.

In its basic form, the Leslie Speaker has an built-in ampli er and two rotors; the “Horn Rotor” for treble and the “Bass Rotor” for bass which are each fed by a custom-designed driver/speaker. The combination of the two utilizes the “Doppler E ect” to give the unique Leslie “swirling” sound..

Some models have not only rotors but also a  xed speaker. The circuit for sending the sound to the rotor is called the “Rotary Channel”, and that for the  xed speaker is called the “Stationary Channel”.

The Digital Leslie on-board the SK1/SK2 employs all the proprietary concepts used in the physical speakers, but realizes them in the digital realm. It is recommended that you run the Main Outputs “in stereo” to get the fullest e ect.

PEDAL SUSTAIN, MANUAL BASS

A popular option for playing the Pedals or Manual Bass is Pedal Sustain, which allows the Pedal voice to smoothly decay upon release, much in the manner of a string bass.

Using the lowest note of the keyboard, you can play the PEDAL part together (Manual Bass).

[P. SUS] button

To engage the PEDAL SUSTAIN, press the [P. SUS] button and the light will go ON. After releasing your foot from the Pedal keyboard (or, if you release your ﬁ nger from the

Manual keyboard when you are using the Manual Bass function) (= explained later in this manual), the sound will slowly fade, or decay.

NOTE: You can control the decay time of the Pedal Sustain. (P. 75)

[M. BASS] button

To engage the Manual Bass function, press the [M. BASS] button and the light will go ON.

 e keyboard that functions as the Manual Bass is the keyboard itself if it is on the SK1 stand-alone, and the Lower keyboard if the Lower keyboard is added to the SK1 or SK2.

TRANSPOSE

 e transpose function allows you to match the same key of other instruments or vocalists without changing the key that you are playing in.

For example, if you set Transpose at [+5], the note “F” sounds when you play the “C” key. (By playing in the key of C the SK1 sounds in the key of F.)

[TRANSPOSE] button

 To raise the pitch by semi-tone, press the [UP] button, while holding down the

[TRANSPOSE] button.

 To lower the pitch by semi-tone, press the [DOWN] button, while holding down the

Simulation of a PCM synthesizer to produce the key-click only at ‘attack’: AT = 8, RL = 4

Slow envelope like a pipe-organ: AT = 0, RL = 0

FOLD-BACK

As the number of the Tone-Wheels was limited on the B-3/C-3, the very highest and lowest pitches “folded back” on the keyboards, sounding the same octave twice in a row. This function reproduces this characteristic.

HOW DOES THE ORGAN VOLUME WORK?

The organ volume adjusts just the volume after multi-e ects unlike the Expression. It is useful for set the volume of each Patch, or set the level balance between organ and extra voice section.

Set the sounding range of the UPPER part with these two parameters.

⓫ LOWER ZONE - OCTAVE

Set the octave shift for the LOWER part.  e setting range is -2 to +2.

⓬ LOWER ZONE - LOW ⓭ LOWER ZONE - HIGH

Set the sounding range of the LOWER part with these two parameters.

SETTING THE PEDAL PART

⓮ ORGAN TYPE

Set the Organ type for the Pedal part.

Normal: The traditional tone wheel sound of the B-3/C-3. Muted: Analog oscillating sound as heard on the Classic X-5. Synth1: Saw-tooth waveform with the  lter-sweep. Synth2: Dull square wave.

When the “Pipe” Organ type is selected by (1), only Pipe Organ pedal sounds are heard, regardless of this parameter. Also, parameters (15) to (18) are unavailable.

⓯ ATTACK

 is allows you to set the Pedal Attack Rate and the Key-Click Volume at ‘attack’ and ‘release’.

MAX CLK: Immediate attack and the key-click is loud. NORM CLK: Immediate attack and the key-click is normal. SOFT CLK: Immediate attack and the key-click is soft. NO CLK: A slightly slower attack without key-click. SLOW ATK: Slow attack without key-click.

⓰ DECAY RATE

 is allows you to determine whether the Pedal voice remains at the same volume as a note is held, or if the voice decays, as like a plucked string.

 e setting range is 1 - 5 and C.  e higher the value, the longer the decay time.  ere is no decay at C.

⓱ SUSTAIN LENGTH

 is allows you to set the Release Rate (= the decay time after key release), when the [P. SUS] button is ON.

1 is the shortest, and 5 is the longest decay time.

NOTE: You can locate this page by holding down the [P. SUS] button as well.

⓲ VELOCITY

 is allows you to set the response to the Velocity.  e setting range is OF and 1 - 4. At OFF, the volume does not change however hard you play the key. As the value increases from 1 - 4, the sounds gets louder even if the key is played softly.

⓳ KEY MODE

 is allows you to set the Pedal polyphony.

MONO: Only the lowest note will sound, when you play a chord. POLY: Makes it possible to play chords(up to 3 notes). LAST: The last note you hit that’s the one you want to hear.

On the Manual Bass (P. 33), the pedal part sounds its own mode (P. 112 #1) which regardless of this parameter.

⓴ PEDAL ZONE - OCTAVE

SPRING REVERB

The Hammond Organ company actually invented the spring reverb for its organs in the 1940’s. The e ect was obtained with a length of spring and a few pickups. If the spring was disturbed, it would make a large crashing noise that was usually considered a nuisance, but sometimes was used as a program sound e ect. The Reverb here is digital, but the “crash” e ect is re-created here.

LEAKAGE NOISE

In the vintage electro-mechanical Hammonds, sometimes the signal from adjacent tonewheels would be picked up (or “leaked”) along with the current tonewheel in play. This “hash” noise, another Hammond anomaly originally considered to be a defect grew to be an integral part of the Hammond sound.

“Mellow” does not include the Leakage Noise.

NOTE: The parameters 3 - 8 are the virtual Tonewheel Parameters. If you perform the record-

THE EFFECTIVE USE OF THE MID-

DLE FREQUENCY

The frequency response of the horn rotor in the Leslie speaker is not  at. It has a peak from 1kHz to 3kHz. This peak is e ective in “cutting through” any ensemble playing.

If you use this organ through line out without a Leslie speaker, you can duplicate e ect by setting the FREQUENCY- MIDDLE to approximately 2kHz, and the GAIN - MIDDLE to “+”.

TURNOVER FREQUENCY

The MIDDLE of this equalizer controls a point of frequency. This is called center frequency. The BASS (or TREBLE) controls lower (or higher) than speci ed frequency. This is called turnover frequency.

PATCH PARAMETERS

The equalizer is designed to be a patch parameter to be actively utilized as a part of sound making parameter.

Use the Master Equalizer for tonal compensation to match the performance stage (P. 27).
